Celebrate Stefan Molyneux’s YouTube ban with some of his Greatest Hits, and by “greatest” I mean just terrible

Stefan M: Up in flames

By David Futrelle

YouTube “philosopher” Stefan Molyneux was never really much of a philosopher. And now he’s not a YouTuber either: the streaming video site has banned his ass.

Molyneux, alas, is still on Twitter, where he broke the news with a typically melodramaic flourish.

 just suspended the largest philosophy conversation the world has ever known.

#FreeFreedomain

Oh, it was a “philosophy conversation,” huh? I thought it was just a weird old dude lecturing young women about how they need to start having babies pronto before their eggs get old and smelly. I thought it was a white dude spewing out racist garbage about IQ and the glories of Western Civilization. I thought it was a not-quite-official alt-rightist serving as a gateway drug, leading possibly thousands of his followers into the official alt-right.

But alas, simply cataloging Molyneux’s assorted obsessions isn’t really the best way to pay tribute to this YouTube Philsopher who isn’t a philosopher and is no longer on YouTube. So I thought I’d provide a handy menu of some of his greatest hits as a public intellectual. By which I mean: here are a bunch of my old posts about the guy.

Catalpa: don’t forget the statues! All these statues are coming down, which means we no longer have racism anymore.

I started seeing warnings to not allow things to stop at symbolic gestures. A week later, the protests ended in the news (I’m well aware they continue every night, they just don’t get coverage). And the discussion is all about flags and pancakes.

By the way, pancake mix for yinz:
1 cup buckwheat flour
1 tbl sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp cinnamon
pinch of salt
No racist imagery.

Makes enough for 1 active person (e.g. backpacking or cycle touring) per day; scale up as needed, or cut it down a bit for in-town breakfasts. Mix with 1 large egg and 3/4 cup water, or dried egg and 1 cup water. Serve with maple syrup and semi-salted butter.

You don’t use buttermilk in your pancakes?

The thing about the pancakes is I bet that 99.9% of the angry conservatives never noticed the image on the box and if it had gone away without announcement none of them would have noticed or cared, but because they heard it was racist they had to jump in to defend it. Very telling that they only intervene after hearing that the thing they want to defend is racist.

All these statues are coming down, which means we no longer have racism anymore.

We had Obama, no more racism since 2008! And no more homophobia since Obergefell in 2015! /s
That appears to unironically be the view of a lot of liberals and centrists.

Hey, you stole my line!

Seriously, I’m glad Molyspew’s been kicked off YouTube.

Finally! Doubtless the most amusing bit is when he tried going onto Twitch next and was promptly banned there as well. Hope he goes broke and is unable to sustain his Hate Speech channels.

@WWTH

Stephen Molyneaux sockpuppeting as an adoring young female fan was my favorite philosophical moment of all time.

I still laugh about it. It was unbelievably cringey.
